2.3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20 TBone (9096) - Pori, FINLAND - JUN 27, 2009
Draught@Kaisla.
Pale yellow color, small white head. Grainy, a bit buttery malty aroma with light grassy hops. Sweet malty flavor, fizzy carbonation. Like Seppo said ... some fruity pear notes, almost like drinking perry. Boring pale lager.
2.8 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 12/20 bierkoning (7777) - La Tropica, NETHERLANDS - MAR 23, 2004
Golden color, slightly hazy. Two months past best before date. Sweet apple and vinegar aroma. Hoppy flavor with a slight smokiness and sweet apples. A-typical pils, also probably past its peak. Still decent and full of flavor.
2 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 8/20 FatPhil (5970) - Tallinn, ESTONIA - JUL 5, 2009
Keg (Kaisla, Helsinki)
Vague sour almondy aroma. Pleasant carbonation, fairly watery palate.
Soft malty body, some slightly emasculated hops. Slightly milky and a
touch of almond. Not much finish, a bit of hops I guess. A little
sticky, but does quench a thirst. Really not enough bite for a pils.
3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 10/20 shrubber85 (4843) - Greenville, Indiana, USA - DEC 3, 2004
Bottle. Wheat malt aroma with hint of hops - noted sourness. Tan-yellow color with small head. Flowery hops and malt flavor - slightly on the sweet side. Decent body. Not bad, not great.
2.5 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20 sayravai (4526) - Helsinki, FINLAND - JUN 26, 2009
(Draught@Sailors) Very buttery-malty aroma with slightly harsh, grassy hoppiness. Butter also dominating the flavor, with pear-fruity hints and some grassy hops. Medium body, lowish carbonation. Quite sweet and basic, buttery pils.
2.5 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20 thedm (4116) - Fort Wayne, Indiana, USA - OCT 12, 2004
This The DM & Hotstuff’s European Honeymoon trip beer number 85. This bottled brew from the Ettaler Monastery in Oberammergau Germany poured a large head of foamy fine to medium sized mostly lasting white colored bubbles that left behind a fair lacing. The body contained soft carbonation, was transparent and yellow in color. Its aroma contained notes of malt and was very mild. Its mouth feel is smooth with a slightly tingly palate and a malty aftertaste. Its flavor contained malty hoppy notes that favored the malts. A very average brew.

Shared this one with my friend Gyurke in Wiesbaden. Pours a bright gold amber color. Aromas fruit, floral, and malt. Flavor is malty, with a fine hop taste. Hop finish and aftertaste.
1.5 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 3/20 hotstuff (3213) - Indiana, USA - OCT 30, 2004
Bottle from the Ettaler Monastery in Oberammergau, Germany. White head, fair lacing, transparent, carbonated and a pale yellow hue. Weak malt aroma. Malt and lightly bitter flavor. Light bodied pilsener and very boring IMO.
